17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Manville Iron Works in all its industrial glory. Taken by renowned photographer Carl Mydans in February 1936, during the heart of the Great Depression, this image provides a glimpse into a time when American industry was struggling to survive. The scene depicts the exterior of the iron works factory, situated against a backdrop of snow-covered grounds. The smokestacks billow thick plumes of smoke into the cold winter air, symbolizing both progress and pollution. A railroad track runs alongside the factory, highlighting its importance as a hub for transportation and commerce. Despite its somber atmosphere, there is an undeniable beauty in this image. The powerlines crisscrossing above add an element of modernity to an otherwise bleak landscape. Telephone poles stand tall amidst the snowy surroundings, connecting this remote location to the rest of society. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of America's resilience during challenging times. It represents not only an era marked by economic hardship but also one that witnessed significant government intervention through programs like FSA (Farm Security Administration) and New Deal initiatives. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, let us reflect on how far we have come while honoring those who worked tirelessly at places like Manville Iron Works to build our nation's foundation.
